Blake Lively, the beloved actress and beauty icon, has officially entered the haircare scene with the launch of her line, Blake Brown, available exclusively at Target. This new venture, a project seven years in the making, invites us to share in Lively's personal haircare secrets, blending effective performance with well-being.
Launched into Target stores on July 31, 2024, the Blake Brown collection includes eight essential products to nourish and fortify all hair types. The lineup features two shampoos, two hair masks, a pre-shampoo treatment, a leave-in spray, a mousse, and a dry shampoo. Notably, Lively’s collection forgoes traditional conditioner, promoting hair masks instead. Lively explained in a Target interview, "I like very simple systems. I admire people’s routines, but I don’t know how to do all that stuff. I don’t want 1,000 products. I want to be told all the steps; I don’t want a manual for it. Make it simple, make it easy, make it fast and I can DO it."
Among the highlights is the Wild Nectar Santal Fundamental Nourishing Shampoo, a favorite of Lively's, priced at $18.99, which promises soft, smooth, and frizz-free hair. The Sandalwood Vanille Fundamental Strengthening Shampoo, another standout, uses a plant protein complex to boost volume and strength.
Lively's haircare routine, as she shared with Vogue, revolves around alternating between two shampoos and a hair mask, avoiding conditioner altogether. This effective and simple system underscores the ethos of Blake Brown: uncomplicated, luxurious hair care.
The excitement surrounding Blake Brown is palpable, evident in the $16 million media impact value within its first week. The line, ranging from $18.99 to $24.99, is clean, vegan, and cruelty-free, appealing to a broad audience.
Blake Brown carries personal significance too, as the name blends her father's last name, Brown, and her mother's maiden name, Lively. In the same interview with Target, Lively said, "Brown is my dad’s last name. My dad took “Lively” from my mom, but Blake Brown is on my birth certificate. It was important for me to put my name on this brand because I worked so hard on it and because it is so personal to me, but I didn’t want to use “Lively.” I want the brand to stand on its own and earn people’s respect, and it felt like “Blake Brown” was the answer."
For those eager to achieve Blake Lively’s effortlessly glamorous hair, Blake Brown offers straightforward and effective solutions. Discover the collection now at Target stores, online, and soon at BlakeBrownBeauty.com.
